ANS doesn’t run a theme.
It runs a storefront I built.
I took a Shopify store off a pre-built Liquid theme and rebuilt the whole front end on Hydrogen, React and the Storefront API — so the routing, the rendering and the shopping experience are code I own rather than settings I configure.

What changed
A theme you configure, versus a storefront you write
Before · Liquid theme
angelina-nail-supply-nyc.myshopify.com
The pre-built theme
Two stacked promo bars, a wrapped row of eleven nav items, and a banner competing with the search field.
After · Hydrogen
angelinanailsupply.com
The storefront I built
One promo rail, four grouped categories, and a hero the eye reaches first.
Pre-built Liquid theme
One box you configure. Rendering, routing and the data layer all live inside Shopify.
Custom Hydrogen storefront
Every layer above the data is code I wrote, and deploy.
